Fur-bulous!

I recently spent the day working at Hobbs in Walton on Thames, which was obviously lovely but a very long day. So naturally, on my hour-long lunch break, I did a spot of shopping (:

I bought this fur collar from H&M for £14.99 but couldn't find it on the website. But it was definitely worth the money, because it makes all my coats and jackets look completely new!!

I also bought these boots from H&M. So in love with them, and they're super comfy. I've had them about a week now so they're not completely clean & new-looking anymore. But I'm dead chuffed with them. There's a few versions knocking like these from like these from Topshop.

I'd be lusting after the leather biker with a fur collar from Topshop for a while, but with my car MOT next week I've had to compromise and make my own cheapskate version! Which I actually kinda like (:On my little lunchbreak shopping spree in h&m I also bought chunky knit socks to wear with my boots, and some lovely little bits in the sale including a white pencil skirt and a pair of sunglasses for summer & some cosy grey wool shorts for winter. I'll do a few outfit posts soon I hope, having a chap around pays off when you need someone to snap what you're wearing! Taking these photo's of myself today was a nightmare, I'm awful at it, and today I look like I should be living under a bridge hence minimal snaps of the face.Had a nice day yesterday with the boy doing a charity shop crawl in our local town. Oli got a Kooks album which he purchased for £1.99 & then we spent ages in the cute little record shop eyeing up the vinyls. Good weekend.xx

I know how you feel, I really fancied one of those leather jackets with the fur but I agree with you, buying the jacket and fur separately is a much more sensible idea! You could get a whole range of different furs and wear a different one each day!

Yeah, I mean the leather biker Topshop had without the fur was £55, and this season's 'with fur' is £58 (and fur still detachable). So it is a good price, and I hope to get one still anyway, because I only have a denim biker, and a girl's gotta have some leathers. But yeah I totally agree about wearing a different fur each day (:

Oh my, you and your blog are both gorgeous! Looks like it's going really well, and the layout's lovely (: Thanks sweetie, I check out everyone's blog who posts a comment, and only follow the ones who I feel I actually can relate to etc (bloggers integrity haha). But I'm definitely following yours (: looking forward to some more posts xx

No I hate fur too, would never wear real fur! And I hate fur coats, faux or otherwise actually. But I do like these faux fur collars that are getting around atm! Thanks lovely, very sweet blog by the way (:
